## How to convert PNG to BMP

1. **Add your PNG files.** Drag and drop PNG files onto the converter, paste them, or click to browse. You can add several at once.
2. **Choose BMP.** BMP is already selected. Open Options if you want to change quality, size or metadata.
3. **Convert.** Click Convert. Your files are converted right in your browser in seconds.
4. **Download your BMP.** Download each BMP file, or everything at once as a ZIP.

## Good to know

- BMP doesn't support transparency, so transparent areas are filled with white.
- PNG files are typically used for screenshots, logos, UI assets and any graphic that needs sharp edges or a transparent background, while BMP is best for legacy Windows software and raw pixel exchange.
- This conversion runs on ImageMagick, running locally in your browser — nothing is uploaded and it works even on slow connections.

| MIME type | image/png | image/bmp |
| Best for | screenshots, logos, UI assets and any graphic that needs sharp edges or a transparent background | legacy Windows software and raw pixel exchange |
| Properties | lossless, transparency, open standard | lossless, legacy format |

**PNG:** PNG is a lossless raster format that keeps every pixel exactly as it was and supports full alpha transparency.

**BMP:** BMP is an uncompressed bitmap format from Windows. It's simple and lossless, which also makes files very large.
